eAlert is a free email and digital subscription service allowing the public to subscribe to topics of interest and receive instant, automated email notification whenever the City posts new information on its website. The City also can send e-newsletters, text messages and relevant information to specific groups.

Anyone can sign up to receive updates on topics of interest such as news releases, neighborhood news, recreation programs, transportation and construction updates and other timely information.

Subscribers can sign up for as many or as few topics as they wish, ask for emails to be consolidated into daily or weekly digests and easily unsubscribe at any time.

The City has partnered with GovDelivery, Inc., to offer this free service to the public.

eAlert represents the latest effort by the City to enhance communication with residents and businesses. In addition to improved communications, the system helps reduce costs related to printing and postage and reduces the use of paper.
